The Suchet version is quite good. Donald Sumpter (Maester Luwin on Game of Thrones) as Cust.

Oh, they just call him "Mortimer".

Now I'm wondering if the Discworld books are translated into French, and what they did with that title…

If you want Toby Jones in a better Agatha Christie adaption, he was predictably great in the 2016 BBC miniseries version of The Witness for the Prosecution. (It's not quite as great as their version of And Then There Were None from the year before, but still very good.)

I agree completely. I love Suchet's Poirot, but the Murder on the Orient Express adaptation was a total drag. The story is a ridiculously over-the-top mystery, set on a luxury train filled with outrageous characters. The last thing it needs is gloomy ponderings of mortality and religion.

Except you say "irrefuteable" and guess what? Folks are going to refute it. I know, I know but sadly far too many are willing to listen to the three percent of scientists than the vast majority. I know, it's not rational but that's how it is.

"God can take care of it": also conservatives' health-care policy.

You have a boss who is twenty? And why would a 16-year-old Spider-Man be too young, anyway? None of this conversation makes sense.

I didn't realize Salman Rushdie got his start writing Mickey D fan fiction!

Other names mentioned in the Letter to the Romans include Sarah and Rebecca (9:9-10), so it doesn't seem like a stretch to think that Rachel could also have been one of them. And although the great majority of names referenced by Paul apart from established biblical figures are Greek or Roman, there are a few…

Guys, covfefe is clearly the White Lodge version of garmonbozia. As President, Trump gets advance access to upcoming Twin Peaks episodes. You can tell he's a big fan since he hired BOB to be his chief strategist.

No, see, this is a strategic masterstroke by Trump, effortlessly changing the conversation from the multitude of ongoing scandals to something quite meaningless with a single word. Five-dimensional chess!

Hitting back against the stories that Trump is bullying his staff, spokeswoman Hope Hicks claimed:

But who said anything about the name being Greek?

There are, I think, three four-episode seasons of the original House of Cards, and one of them is about a plot to force the king to abdicate. If the American show was ever adapting its storylines directly, surely it must long since have run out of material?

I was disappointed that the "Coming to America" sequence left out the bit where the tribal elders take turn speaking in the voice of their god, as that was one of my favorite parts of the book.

A double-headed eagle is traditionally an imperial sigil, just in case we thought making up a coat of arms wasn't self-aggrandizing enough.

In US coat of arms, he changed the slogan "Integritas" to "Trump"

But the Kushner faction is also reportedly the one trying to push for remaining in the Paris Treaty.

It's probably a reference to a recent Harvard study that showed that most major media outlets published many more negative than positive stories about Trump, and that Fox News was closest to a 50-50 split (though still with slightly more negative than positive coverage).
